The UUID library is used to generate unique identifiers for objects that may be
accessible beyond the local system. For instance, they could be used to generate
unique HTTP cookies across multiple web servers without communication between
the servers, and without fear of a name clash.
The generated UUIDs can be reasonably expected to be unique within a system, and
unique across all systems, and are compatible with those created by the Open
Software Foundation (OSF) Distributed Computing Environment (DCE).
All generated UUIDs are either version 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, or version 7. And all are
variant 1, meaning compliant with the OSF DCE standard as described in RFC4122.
Versions 6 and 7 are not standardized. They are presented here as proposed in
RFC4122bis, version 14, and may change in the future. RFC4122bis is noted to
replace RFC4122, if approved.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

Remove all the bootstrap files (.bs) from the plists.
Starting with perl 5.20, they're not installed any more if empty,
and on FreeBSD, they're (always ?) empty.
